I do have a copy of the Directories for Daofu, and I will be able to get access to them in China again some day, and until then I guess I need to rely on other sources. I hope I can also secure some funding for hiring someone to turn the Directories into pdfs and then I can share them online.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">That aside, it would be good at some point to have an online repository for all Gyalrongic related materials so that we can just go to one place to access such literature, etc. </div><div class=""><br class=""><div class="">

As for the problems, the Directories are somewhat old already, contain some errors, can be difficult to access or purchase outside China, and
some of the listed toponyms are simply Tibetanized <i class="">ad hoc</i>, rather than having real history in a Tibetan form (although such cases can often be easy to recognize for the reader who understands local history and reads Tibetan). Nevertheless, when used critically, I think the Directories are a great resource for checking toponyms.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Best wishes,</div><div class="">Sami</div></div><br class=""><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">2021年4月15日(木) 3:44 Jesse P.
